Definitions

  • This invention relates to an improved suspension system for vehicle bodies, in which the springs are of the helical type, and has for its object to provide a spring suspension which will be such as to cushion separately each of the wheels, both front and rear, unaffected by the movement of each other, thus rendering the vehicle more comfortable and lengthening its life as this suspension will absorb all shocks, whatever their direction.
  • Another feature of the invention is that all the working parts are arranged transversely with regards to the longitudinal plane of symmetry of the vehicle.
  • the upper link has secured to the hicle, etc.
  • the system according to the invention is adapted to be easily arranged to all types of vehicle frames, and also for those specially so constructed for elliptical leaf springs.
  • Figure 1 is a front perspective of the improved suspension system arranged on the front end of a motor car, parts being show in a dissembled relation.
  • Figure 2 is a longitudinal section on an enlarged scale showing the construction of the shock-absorbing device illustrated in Figure 1.
  • the bracket 1 consists of a main or body part to which are secured .the rearwardly extending arms 1.
  • the bracket 1 can be secured to the under side of the frame by rivets or bolts passing through the flanges on the body frame and the bracket arts.
  • p Pivotally secured to the end of the bracket 1 are the links 6 and 8 at the upper and lower horizontal pivotal bearings 3 and 4: respecother end thereof a link 7 which extends at an angle of less than 90 towards the side of the vehicle. This link is pivoted at 5 to the rearwardly extending ,arm 1, the pivotal axes of the pivot 5 and the pivot 3 being in alinement with each other.
  • a resilient compression cushioning device which is secured to the top of the bracket. This device will be described in more detail hereinafter.
  • the link 8 is provided with an arm 11 which extends upwardly from its pivot 4 and is secured to an operating part of the cushioning device M.
  • the cushioning means also includes means for retarding the upward movement of the body, so that the member M functions both as a resilient support and a shock absorber,
  • This member consists -'of the two '30 part casing 20 and 21 telescoping one (20) within the other (21).
  • each of the sections are provided with overlying shoulders 23, 22 on the respective sections to prevent 35 longitudinal separation of the sections.
  • the outerend'of the section 20 is closed by an integral structure to the outside of which issecured lugs 29 between which the end of the arm 11 of the link 8 is secured by the bolt 12.
  • the outer end of the casing part 21 is closed absorber to give a slower recoil of the spring 19 when the spring tends to restore itself from a compressed to its normal condition. This in the combination above described prevents the body being thrown upwardly in a violent manner.
  • a spring suspension for vehicle bodies comprising a bracket member secured to the vehicle body, an extension on said bracket member, parallel links pivoted to said bracket member in a vertical plane, an axle carrying 80 member pivoted to said links, the axes of said links being horizontal, opposite connecting distance being equal whereby a parallelogram is formed between said pivot points, a wheel mounted on said axle, spring compressed cushioning means to prevent movement of said links on said pivot, a third link pivoted on said axle carrying member and to said bracket extension, the pivot axis of said third link and bracket member being in alignment with the pivot axis of one of said first mentioned links, and said third link being formed integral at one end with the link with which its pivot axis is in alignment.
  • This end of the cylinder is closed and rests against the closure 25 for the casing part 21.
  • the inner end of the casingpart 20 carries a piston P having a head P which fits the bore of the cylinder 24..
  • the piston P where it enters the cylinder 2 1' is packed by the packing 30 held by the nut 30.
  • the piston head P is provided with chan nels 27 and 28 passing to opposite sides of the head.
  • the cylinder 24 is filled with oil which resists movement of the piston due to the necessity of flow of the oil from one side of the piston to the other when moved in either direction.
  • the operation of the structure so described gives a dash pot action and cushions the movement of the body when the 65 piston is moved inwardly and acts as a shock
